Do we share the information we collect with third parties?
We may share the information that we collect, both personal and
non-personal, with third parties such as advertisers, contest sponsors,
promotional and marketing partners, and others who provide our content
or whose products or services we think may interest you. We may also
share it with our current and future affiliated companies and business
partners, and if we are involved in a merger, asset sale or other
business reorganization, we may also share or transfer your personal and
non-personal information to our successors-in-interest.
We may engage trusted third party service providers to
perform functions and provide services to us, such as hosting and
maintaining our servers and our service, database storage and
management, e-mail management, storage marketing, credit card
processing, customer service and fulfilling orders for products and
services you may purchase through our platform. We will likely share
your personal information, and possibly some non-personal information,
with these third parties to enable them to perform these services for us
and for you.
We may share portions of our log file data, including IP
addresses, for analytics purposes with third parties such as web
analytics partners, application developers, and ad networks. If your IP
address is shared, it may be used to estimate general location and other
technographics such as connection speed, whether you have visited the
service in a shared location, and type of device used to visit the
service. They may aggregate information about our advertising and what
you see on the service and then provide auditing, research and reporting
for us and our advertisers.
We may also disclose personal and non-personal information
about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties
as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in order
to respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas), to protect
our rights and interests or those of a third party, the safety of the
public or any person, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or
legally actionable activity, or to otherwise comply with applicable
court orders, laws, rules and regulations.
